Using "Experimental.swc" Code

Hi,

I'd like to try out the Navigator and NavigatorGroup classes that are said
to be
<http://apache-flex-development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/Spark-ViewStack-component-td30296.html>
in the "experimental.swc".

I'd like to get this set up in IntelliJ so that I can see the source code,
and set breakpoints in it, etc.

Is there a web page that explains how to do this, or could someone give me
some pointers?

Thanks,

Douglas

A correction for my previous post:

I said "you need to define a new "ns" namespace in your view".

I should have said: "you need to define a new namespace in your view".

Obviously, one can use whatever name one likes.

Any of the standard install methods should install it along side all the 
others as far as I know.
Have you checked to see if it's there ?

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your response.

Yes, but where do I get the library?   :)

If I download the stuff at
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-sdk.git, will I find it in
there?

Thanks,

Douglas

Hi All,

Answering my own question here, and adding a few notes.

experimental.swc is included in the Flex SDK, and can be found in
[sdk]/frameworks/libs/.

You can find some example code that shows how to use it, by Swen Van
Zanten, here:

https://github.com/HDsign/Flex-Demo-4.10.0-mobile

In order to use the components you need to define a new "ns" namespace in
your view, like this...

xmlns:ns="http://flex.apache.org/experimental/ns"

... and use it, like this ...

<ns:SomeExperimentalComponent/>

If you're using IntelliJ, it will claim that the code is problematic, but
it compiles fine, and the Navigator component, at least, works fine in the
iOS Simulator.

And, finally, I'm happy to report that the Navigator component seems to
work as a replacement for <mx:ViewStack>    :)

Douglas

I don't know the IDE specifics, but just add the library and start using 
them as normal.
